Question

What is the area of the trapezoid? 13 5t st st square feet

Answer 1

The formula for calculating the area of a trapezoid is given by;

$A=\frac{a+b}{2}h$

where a and b are the base and h is the height

From the question,

a = 5

b= 13

h = 3

substitute the vakues into the formula

$A=\frac{5+13}{2}(3)$$A=\text{ 9}\times3$$A=27ft^2$
